Now for something a little harder.

This one from my youth really excited me. Still does. Manic, I know. Steve Albini before he became a big name producer for the Pixies, Nirvana, etc…

Big Black - Kerosene

and even more crazy

Big Black - Stinking Drunk

My favorite haunting dark wave band and album. Nice ambient sections interspersed with rhythms. This album to me is a masterpiece of the '80s. 30 years later doesn't sound dated one bit. Headphones recommended.

Lovely acoustic cover of Mercy Street.

He's using an altered drop D tuning with an F#, and it's pretty easy to play this way, except for one big stretch.

Dead Can Dance - Host of Seraphim

Used in the horror movie The Mist, which I also really liked.

This is a bit challenging but I really like it.

He Said - Only One I II

Less dense, more pop, but similar, and still great too.

Art of Noise - Beatbox

not to forget their classic

Art of Noise - Moments in Love

excellent as well

The guitar solo right around the 5:00 mark gives me chills. Pure eargasm.

Started today with one of my favorite Zappa albums. I could play the drums to "The Gumbo Variation" and "Willie the Pimp" all day long

Frank Zappa - Hot Rats

Hard for me to choose fave Zappa … love the early Mothers stuff (Absolutely Free, Only in it for the Money, etc), the more jazzy groups with George Duke, etc, Lather, Joe's Garage, You Are What You Is, stuff with Steve Vai, and on and on. Each era presented interesting things to listen to!

Yeah Zappa had alot of variation in his music. My favorites are Joe's Garage, Hot Rats, Sheik Yerbouti, One Size Fits All, Thing Fish, and anything where he just sits back and jams on the guitar (Shut Up and Play Your Guitar). Pretty much the stuff from late 70's - mid 80's

I recently discovered crypt of the necrodancer. At least the music that is. Now I'm not into techno, dance, synch, etch. But those tracks sound pretty cool

Fuck a duck. That is almost exactly like an ageing guest I saw grab the mic from a wedding band.
